Beyond Silicon Valley: How One Online Course Helped Support Global Entrepreneurs

Tuesday, May 8, 2018 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm
CSIS Headquarters
Born out of the Case Western Reserve University's Beyond Silicon Valley massive open online course of 135,000 registered students from 190 countries, Beyond Silicon Valley: How One Online Course Helped Support Global Entrepreneurs profiles 20 people who have supported entrepreneurship in communities around the world that face unique challenges unheard of in Silicon Valley—challenges like economic hardship, political strife, corruption or a cultural aversion to risk-taking.

Join us for a discussion of the book with author Michael Goldberg, Assistant Professor of Design and Innovation at the Weatherhead School of Management at Case Western Reserve University.

Beyond Silicon Valley is available free of charge in PDF format at www.beyondsiliconvalleybook.com (with the Kindle and print-on-demand versions available on Amazon for the minimum price allowed). The book is supported by a generous grant from the Burton D. Morgan Foundation.
 

This event is made possible by general support to CSIS.
